How can I customize my notifications?

Question

I get so many email notifications. I want to at least prevent notifications for actions that I take. That is just silly. It takes more time to delete those than it does to do the action! And I want to make sure I only get notifications for items that I created or I am assigned to. Not really sure if I am getting all of those or not, since I get so many.

What are some examples of something that gets triggered? And what is your relationship to the issue?

Nick Roosevelt · Answer

Right. But most of the messages are that automation for jira, but was actually me doing the thing that triggered the automation to take the action.

@Nick Roosevelt

For the Automation Rules which of the following is used for the Actor

- "Automation for Jira"

- a specific user, but not you

- the user that triggered the rule

It makes sense if you get emails for the first two, but I would expect you to not get emails for the third if you unchecked "You make changes to the issue"
